ReadableMake anything understandable.
Give Readable a text, a web page or a PDF and say who needs to understand it. It rewrites only what is hard for that reader, in any language, and checks that the meaning stays exactly the same.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, the Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notification from the Lessor, remit all outstanding amounts, including accrued interest at a rate of 1.5% per month, failing which the Lessor may, at its sole discretion, terminate this Agreement forthwith.
Readable · Plain (B1–B2), general audience
If the Lessor (the owner who rents the property to you) sends you a written notice, you must pay everything you owe within 30 days.
This includes interest of 1.5% per month on any late amount.
If you do not pay in time, the Lessor may end this agreement straight away. The Lessor decides this alone.
Audience first
Who should understand this?
Start from the reader, not from “simplify”. Pick who it is for and Readable decides which terms to explain, which sentences to split and what to leave alone.
- General audience
- Customers
- Patients
- Second-language reader
- Young reader
- New to the field
- Decision-maker
- Specialist
Then fine-tune on one scale for every language, from simpler to more precise:
- Very simpleA1–A2
- SimpleA2–B1
- PlainB1–B2
- StandardB2–C1
- AdvancedC1

How it works
Not paragraph by paragraph. Passage by passage, checked.
Results stream in as each passage finishes, usually within seconds.
- 1
Finds what is hard
Every passage is rated on a six-step scale and checked for unexplained terms and instructions that can be read two ways.
- 2
Rewrites only that
Passages that already read at your level stay untouched. The rest are rewritten for your reader, in any language.
- 3
Checks the meaning
Every rewrite is checked against the original: facts, numbers, deadlines, conditions and obligations must survive.
- 4
Fixes and retries
A rewrite that fails the check goes back with the reason. If it still fails, you keep the original, never a guess.
Meaning is a hard gate
Easier to read. Exactly as true.
Reading level is a target. Meaning is a guarantee. Every rewrite is verified against the original before you see it.
- ✓ Facts
- ✓ Numbers
- ✓ Dates
- ✓ Deadlines
- ✓ Conditions
- ✓ Exceptions
- ✓ Obligations
- ✓ Permissions
Numbers are checked in code
Every number in the original must appear in the rewrite, in any digit script. No model is trusted with that.
Ambiguity is surfaced, not invented
If the original can be read two ways, Readable marks it “Unclear in the original” and lists a question for the author.
No pass, no rewrite
A passage that still fails after one retry keeps its original text. You never get a confident guess.
